We had an absolute blast doing Lydia’s Senior Portraits at Harlinsdale Farm in Franklin,TN. Wow doesn’t she look absolutely stunning like out of a magazine. Her hair and makeup is flawless.

Lydia has been homeschooled and goes to a tutorial at West Christian Harpeth and will graduate as a senior this upcoming year. Harlinsdale Farm in Franklin TN about 20 mins south of Nashville was the perfection location for this shoot!

Wow, Lydia, you are an absolute natural and crushed absolutely every pose.

Tip for our seniors, a bouquet of fresh flowers is the perfect prop to freshen up the shoot.

Wow would you look at how gorgeous these florals turned out!? just the perfect pop of color & prop to brighten this shoot. These flowers were from the Brentwood Floral Shop.

Congratulations Lydia and we’re so excited for your beautiful future!

Wow what a fun shoot we had in the middle of fall at Sevier Park in 12th south in Nashville, Tennessee. Right before it started to get a tad chilly around here.

Look at how radiant she is with the sunlight just beaming behind her!

Ah and the iconic flower mural - honestly one of the best murals in Nashville is located right in 12th south across the street from Burger Up my favorite burger joints in all of Nashville. It’s also behind this delicious Lebanese restaurant called Epice - definitely worth checking out.

As far as wardrobe styling went, we stayed away from darker colors such as black and navy to really make her pop and glow in this beautiful sunlight. She’s so classy!

Absolutely love this jean jacket look for such an urban shoot. Really captures the 12th south vibes!

She carries such sweet pure innocence in her eyes, truly a beautiful soul.

Wow, Laila you truly shine!! Look at that glorious smile. We had the privilege of being her photographers and capturing her beauty! After she graduates high school she plans to go on and major in criminal psychology. You will do amazing at that, Laila. We had so much fun with you!

Battle Ground Academy senior Laura Abbott blew us away during her senior portrait session with her fierce poses and fabulous style! Downtown Franklin was the perfect location to photograph this green eyed beauty with all it’s cozy corners! Just look at this gorgeous gal!

When she’s not killing it in front of the camera, Laura loves to sing and to act! It’s not surprising that she thrives on film with hobbies like that! On her off time, one of Laura’s favorite spots is Pure Barre for a good workout. Her hair and makeup looked absolutely gorgeous as the style completely complemented and accentuated her natural beauty.

We just can’t get enough of this sweet Southern belle- her outer and inner beauty is so captivating! Her beauty is classic + timeless, like past Hollywood actress Audrey Hepburn.

“The beauty of a woman must be seen from in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides.”

— Audrey Hepburn

Congratulations on your senior year, Laura!! She was such an incredible Battle Ground Academy senior class president. We can’t wait to see the glorious things you’ll do!

We had such a lovely time photographing the beautiful Clara! ;) She came from Knoxville to get her portraits done and she is absolutely radiant inside & out! 

Her outfits were super fun & she had a perfect variety of elegant, classy & urban and fun! 

Clara is about to graduate from West High School in Knoxville this year. Not only is she graduating Class of 2018 but she also is AMAZING and will be graduating with her IB diploma. I know how much hard work and dedication it takes to be an IB student so it is a really big deal!

So fun doing her some of her images inside Frothy Monkey in Downtown Franklin. She's the absolute cutest. Congratulations Clara on graduating and I'm so excited to see what all you do in the future - whatever you do you will excel!! 

Hayden Kelly, you are a stunner!! Wow, we had SO much fun!!!

When Hayden smiles, she sure lights up a room! Isn't that smile contagious!? 

Hayden's shoot was SO much fun the perfect mix of natural with golden sunlight shooting through the trees at illuminating her gorgeous hair to a more urban industrial look on Clinton Street. We had originally tossed around about the idea of doing them over fall break on the beach in Florida. Obviously, it's not the same but this was the perfect location to capture her personality & style. Maybe next time on the beach pics though ;) 

Aren't her outfits just ADORABLE!? A mix of soft classic + trendy causal... the perfect combo! 

No big deal, Hayden just walking the streets of Nashville like a BOSS. 

100% yes to the glitter!!! Marathon Music Works on Clinton Street was the perfect spot to get the retro urban look we were going for. :) 

Okay, Hayden... maybe you should think about a career in modeling and fashion!? 

I've got to say, Hayden's mom Mary was absolutely incredible!!! She had the entire trunk set up like a portable wardrobe + brought props of our dreams. So prepared and all the hard work totally paid of in these lovely pics!! 

Take a look at these fantastic retro shades ;) 

When Hayden isn't working it as a model, she also happens to be a Centennial High basketball star! :) 

One of my favorite shots ever... golden glitter glory! Funny story, the Emily Anne Senior video has Hayden featured with her blowing glitter. The day we set for Hayden's veiwing/ordering session, I happened to run into her before at CVS and she was covered in glitter- I get to their house later that evening & she's COVERED in what... GLITTER!! I hereby have named her "Glitter Girl." :) 

In all seriousness though, Hayden is truly a remarkable girl. I am so excited to see what she is going to do an accomplish in her lifetime. This is only the beginning!! 

Congratulations, Hayden!!! :) 

WOW. This beautiful young lady is INCREDIBLY talented!! Actress, dancer, model... what does Brittany NOT do?! This session was absolutely breathtaking! 

WATCH RIGHT HERE BELOW HER GORGEOUS MOVING PICTURE IN HIGH DEFINITION!!!! I get chills every time I start watching her dance to the music.  

Wow, just wow... am I right!? Absolutely love this in air action shots of her in the streets of Downtown Franklin! 

I'm really so happy with how the outfits turned out, mix of classic rich & soft blues blues, skirts, black dress & the sunglasses are the perfect touch. 

Brittany does want to pursue some sort of career in the arts. I am confident, whether it is acting, singing, dancing, modeling she will do absolutely incredible!! 

Here blue eyes against the soft greens <3 <3 <3 

Brittany's smile could light up an entire room. In this moment she was looking at her dad who made her laugh throughout the whole shoot... so precious!! 

If you need a talented model or dancer for your next gig... Brittany is your gal!! 

Anyone else a sucker for the absolute classics like Anne of Green Gables? Well, this shot of Brittany in the blue with the sun kissing her from behind and this lovely hat completely reminds me of a modern day Anne! I have a special place in my heart for Anne of Green Gables especially because it's part of my name and I do now say her infamous line, "It's Anne with an E." 

SOO beautiful Brittany!!! 

“Life will only change when you become more committed to your dreams than you are your comfort zone. ”

— George Shaw

I love this quote because it inspires us to keep moving forward and pushing past the hesitations and uncertainties of the future. Brittany, I am SO excited to see how your future unfolds as you embark on this new chapter of life & pursue your passions and discover more about who you were created to be. I look forward to seeing the next steps you take!! 

Where do I begin!? These pics speak for themselves. First of all, the locations of Anna's shoot were absolutely perfect. Mix of both city/rustic/urban/natural! What more could you want in a session?

Check out her BEAUTIFUL MOVING PICTURE VIDEO RIGHT HERE BELOW! WATCH IN HD! :) 

Using Baskin Robbins ice cream was definitely the BEST idea!! But then again, you can never go wrong with ice cream, can you? 

Anna's sweet personality really shines through these images and just WOW when the sun through the trees illuminates her from the behind! :) Anna is graduating this year from Battle Ground Academy and couldn't be more excited her and her future! Not only is she stunning on the outside but she is one of the kindest people you will ever meet and her smile immediately lights up a room. 

Talk about a classic beauty. Black & white truly never fails. When she's not slaying it on camera, you can find her killin' it on the volleyball courts or volunteering her time at Young Life. 

Just walking down the streets of Downtown Franklin like she owns the town. The bouquet of flowers was a perfect touch. 

Heading down to the creek for a swim, are we? :) 

How cool is this background? The twinkling lights + cobblestone pathway are amazing! 

Is she a BGA senior graduate or a Baskin Robbins model? Haha I can't quite tell! 

The location of this pic reminds of some places you would find in Zurich Switzerland or the streets of Ascona/Roma Italy! 

In the heat of summer, the ice cream was a fantastic prop idea... that was until it melted haha! 

I absolutely LOVE this quote!

A little humor for today! In all seriousness, Anna, I am so excited to see how your future unfolds!! <3

Tianna is one of the most authentic, delightful people to be around. Just an honor to be able to photograph Ms. Fisk University commemorating such a joyous occasion. 

"The best preparation for tomorrow is doing your best today. "

- Jackson Brown Jr. 

She's just so stylish we just laughed the whole time and had a blast!! 

This lovely lady is a Fisk University graduate and is SUCH a doll. She graduated with a Bachelors in Businessand how she juggled rigorous academics with pageants, shows, and banquets, I have no idea!!

Anna is just absolutely gorgeous inside and out. Aside from being just perfectly adorable in every way, Anna is also a professional ballet dancer, which made her a complete pro in front of the camera... so graceful and elegant! 

We walked down Mainstreet in downtown Franklin, turned a little corner and found a hidden flower haven!! The hyacinths truly make her lips pop and match perfectly! 

These girls were the absolute sweetest! Best friend sessions are honestly some my absolute favorites too! :) 

These three girls grew up together, and even though they went to separate high schools Christ Presbyterian Academy, Independence High School, and Battle Ground Academy, they decided they wanted to celebrate their last year together with a joint portrait session! 

Needless to say, they were so much fun. :) 

Wow, Meadow is absolutely stunning inside and out. Her wedding preparation photos were a dream. And she looked gorgeous, like a regal princess straight out of a castle in Iceland!! 

Also, look out, Nashville, this lady's coming for you... she's an incredible musician and artist and writes her own heartfelt music. You can check out some of her music HERE

Wedding details... some of my most favorite things to capture. The top highlights of the day to cherish and forever look back on. :)
